Spreading across the Island with lightning frequency, this burger chain seems to be opening new stores on a monthly basis, if not quicker. This location--as do all the locations--offer simple seating but see much more in the way of takeout business. Order a burger or hot dog and the cashier will yell back to the rest of the kitchen how many patties and/ or frankfurters will be necessary for every sale--both of which can be sided by fries. Sandwich toppings are always free, with soda rounding out the menu as the main beverage choice.

Hours: 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Daily.
